A Nightmare You Can Avoid...

I lived at the Gables for just over 2.5 years, and while things started off great, they took a nosedive after about a year. Since December, I’ve had nothing but trouble: sewer backups, a smoking AC/heating unit, and a leaky AC. The new manager, Tara, is all about deflecting problems and passing them up the chain, where they just get ignored.
If you’re eyeing a one-bedroom in the 285 building, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. You don’t want to deal with the mess of sewer backups that have ...
